even a cowboy's gotta set down his hat one day

[acehighmarshall]

Some folks've been wonderin' what I've been up to, asides from superintending the saloon. Normally I'd avoid the dirt, but hell, a man can only go so far with his secrets

You're comparing all of this to you doing what in Dubois?

[acehighmarshall]

Didn't I tell you about the time I did that?

[lunar_skye]

No. ... Go on, tell me how they're comparable.

[acehighmarshall]

Well, I slipped on a pair of clean rubber gloves, lubricated my arms real good, stuck 'em in and felt around for the leg and pulled like a machine.

Same difference for humans, right?

[lunar_skye]

You're no longer allowed in the delivery room, you realize. Or at least not within range of anything.

[acehighmarshall]

C'mon -- don't you wanna be able to tell our son his old man delivered him with his own two hands?

[lunar_skye]

Not without you having a degree in midwifery, no.

...Human midwifery.

[acehighmarshall]

In the old days, a man didn't need no stinkin' degree to deliver his own child!

[lunar_skye]

In the old days, a man's job was restricted to pacing back and forth in the hallway with the movement of a clock's hands to indicate the passage of time. No complaints!

[acehighmarshall]

Yeah, what are you gonna do? Send me to my room without supper?

[lunar_skye]

No, but you will be going to bed without any dessert.

[acehighmarshall]

Fine by me. I snack too much during the day anyhow.
